Several celebrities have put up fantastic performances in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024), but one of the biggest standouts of the season has been Punjab Kings’ (PBKS) Shashank Singh. The 32-year-old made news from the IPL auction as it appeared like PBKS had purchased him in error.

Nitish Kumar Reddy won Player of the Match in PBKS’s most recent match against SRH for his outstanding all-around performance. Based on his performance, Shashank suggested that the young players are carrying over their confidence from their domestic results into the IPL.
“Belief in oneself is the only thing. similar to our style of domestic cricket play. As Nitish is shown here. He typically scored runs and claimed wickets in both red and white ball cricket. Ashutosh, you can see that he performed admirably in the Vijay Hazare and Mushtaq Ali trophy. However, there are others who are joining, such as Angkrish from KKR,” IndiaToday cited Shashank as stating.
Of course, chance plays a role, but there’s also that constant sense of confidence in oneself: Shashank Singh
The famous PBKS batter also commented on how luck is a major factor in everything, saying that although the young players are unknown in the IPL, they are well-known stars in the home circuit. In addition, he mentioned that getting to play in the massive cricket carnival was a prize for doing well in the home circuit.
“The players that are entering the competition may not be well-known to us, but they are well-known in their home country. They are doing quite well, and we play domestically. That is the compensation for that. Here, you carry out your home actions in the same manner,” he added.
“You’re here because of that performance. The game of cricket is one of faith. Whatever you accomplish at this level, in my opinion, you bring confidence and self-belief, and you succeed here. Of course, chance has a role, but self-assurance and relief are constants,” Shashank said.
